In 2022, the water volume scheduling of "Yinjiang Jita" reached 608 million cubic meters

Xinhua News Agency, Beijing, September 2 (Reporter Liu Shiping) The reporter learned from the Ministry of Water Resources on the 2nd that since the Ministry of Water Resources launched the "Yajiang Jita" water dispatch on July 16 this year, it has attracted the Yangtze River Water in the Taihu Lake Basin 6.08 through the Changshu Water Resources Hub. 100 million cubic meters effectively increased the supply of water resources in Taihu Lake Basin and slowed down the rapid decline in the water level in Taihu Lake.

Since the flood in this year, due to continuous high temperature and rain, the water level of Taihu Lake continued to decline, affecting the water resources, water ecology, and water environment of Taihu Lake Basin. At the request of the Jiangsu Provincial People's Government, the Ministry of Water Resources launched the water volume scheduling in the summer. This is the first time since 2007 to launch the "Yajiang Jita" water volume scheduling in the main flood season.

The relevant person in charge of the Ministry of Water Resources and Drought Disaster Defense said that at present, a total of 608 million cubic meters of the Yangtze River Water through the Changshu Water Conservancy Hub attracted the Yangtze River Water through the Changshu Water Conservancy Hub.

The person in charge said that through the implementation of the "Yajiang Jita" water volume scheduling, the water supply supply of the Taihu Basin was effectively increased, the rapid decline in the water level in Taihu Lake, and the life of the two sides of the Wangyu River, around the Taihu River, and other places. Production, shipping, water ecology and other water needs.

According to predictions, Typhoon Xuanlan Nuo No. 11 this year may have a certain impact on the Taihu Lake Basin. In September, the rainfall of the Taihu Basin was close to the year. With the continuous scheduling of "leading the river and Jita", the water level in Taihu may still be compared at the end of September. The same period of the same year was significantly low, and the situation of water supply and water ecological security in the later period was still severe.
